Premium Member Seventies Memories

Our tribute to the eighteen year old boys who were sent to Viet Nam
Was to be chill, chillin, and chillax’in as a tribute to those soon gone.
We were groov’n, and groovy, beatnik style, but we called ourselves hippie. 
We were funky, groovy, and pretty nifty, copacetic, stoked, and thrifty. 

Wearing our hip hugger bellbottoms, our flowered shirts and necklaces too.
Traveled the country in VWs, singing folk songs with a home fry or two.
The true hippies ran to Berkley when they left their parents’ crib.
Lucky to find shagged carpeting, pet rocks. Stoked with each other, glib.

Seventies amazing, pretty out-of-sight, our threads lasted night after night.
Fab time for us whether we were dorks, dudes, foxy mamas, putzes so bright. 
Getting the low down was a bummer, but flower power was alive all summer.
Did not feel the need to rip anyone off, shared love with each newcomer.

Learned some stuff about ourselves in these days of lava lamp and Woodstock.
We could give each other skin, and keep on trucking, sharing a bong or a rock.
When boys returned from Viet Nam I am not sure they spoke the same way.
Many of the survivors put soldiers down which was an ignorant, mean play.

Premium Member Nature's Waltz

Fall's
                                                      palette
                                                clothes summer
                                              leaves with golden
                                            hues.  Melodic breeze
                                               invites exquisitely
                                          frocked foliage to a waltz.
                                  Whirling and twirling, leaves dance in
                                      the air, gradually drifting down...
                            down... down... carpeting the earth with beauty.

Premium Member Empty Eerie Bedroom

Empty … eerie … bedroom
Wallpaper torn off … splotches revealed
Carpeting gone … floorboards rickety 
   Furniture removed ... yawning gaps

Empty ... eerie ... bedroom
Cold, austere ... no furniture
No blinds ... no curtains ... no drapes
   Closets flung open ... no clothes ... no shoes

Empty ... eerie ... bedroom
No beds ... no bedding ... no pillows
No throw-rugs ... no desk or desk lamp
   Bare... naked … uninviting 

Empty... eerie ... bedroom
Smelling faintly of fumes
Paint fumes ... hardwood stain fumes
   The room's occupants

Empty ... eerie ... bedroom
Too still ... too silent ... nothing stirs
An apartment-for-rent feel to it
   Empty ... eerie ... bedroom ...

    Crying for a human touch

Beauty As Tragedy

When I see a snowflake close-up,
the real thing, not the hippie kind,
and stare at that branching pattern
it strikes a deep chord in my mind,
and when I see all that snow fall,
carpeting my grassy backyard,
forming that pure, unblemished sheet,
it does stir something in my heart.
Looks like it should be a still-life,
something preserved for all to see,
but I know that’s impossible,
and that such things never can be,
since I have to get firewood,
churn up that snow with my footprints,
and my kids will be out playing,
I could never take that from them,
even the local animals
will go scamper across the white,
the beauty only will exist
in my memories of this sight.
It makes it all seem so tragic,
losing something sublime and serene…
Frost once said, ‘Nothing gold can stay.’
I understand now what he means.

Lords' Gathering In Covid Pandemic

The mailer is telling you the story...

''Today in my huge mansion
There’s going to have a deep discussion
By Sir of  South region
This note is to you, Lord Western''

"About what this is going to be, minion"
When I offer the note, asked Lord western
"I’m not sure, but about the prevailing situation
Many Lords are yet to invite, in addition"

We were messed up fully that day
Lords are  meeting to save our day
Chefs in the kitchen are making, no stay
Maids are carpeting the guest on their way

They sat down around the table in hall
Lord western, eastern and more were in whole
We people were peeping and amazed so long
B’cause no one uttered a word at all

"Why is the lady of all north in her party frock
May be she  had received the note on spot"
"What parties out there in these days of covid?"
That was a mumbling part of the  servants’  dialogue

All of the Lords, wearing masks and shields
It seems like the worriers  of the battle fields
Yeah of course, but there’s a difference indeed
We see the brave faces of worriers, but none of these

"Boys and girls and maids of the house
You can go and shut doors of the hall  for now
My mailer, you take them away; and close the doors"
That was an order of my Lord, like a shot

"Yes, sir" said I, without any second of lateness
And  then made others to move away from the master’s chamber
That’s when I heard the spoofy voice of Lady Northeness
“God..now I can feel  the taste of  festivity, without any awful diseases”

Liadan

Líadan of the lonely and gloomy timbers, 
Once more weeps for the once-adorning love.
Her gait gently glances at the creaking whimpers, 
As she yearned for eternity at her failures above.

The strands of silk-riveting hair fall down her cheek,
Hanging above the cold, carpeting grass that laid.
Woods singing to her beside the carnage that speak
To a sad, composite soul that remains displayed.

How folly not to bring him delight, 
Even though Heaven's dread feeds his sadness.
Through suffering and heaven's fight, 
His affair is desired by my somber world of madness.

“My heart had ruptured, 
and I was now desperate 
and dying without him.”

Premium Member Inthe Circadian Rhythms of Time

The circadian rhythms of birth, death, and eternity,
Play on in the sunrise of time:
The dread of winter left you naked and bare;
Your bark skin, scale-like, and wrinkle knotted.

Then came the spring of life clothing you
With appetite foliage attracting nature's children
To your warm and nourishing bosom.

Now in the autumn of your life, you ape graying age
With rainbow-hued fronds hanging and dropping
Their Joseph Coat carpeting on Mother Earth's floor.

Creeping out from behind the clouds, old winter
Slowly reboard the cooling winds of change:
Firmly rooted, you proudly stand, arms swaying
To the circadian rhythms of the sunrise of time.

Every season         I think is my favorite
until autumn      comes painting the trees
oh Autumn you are such delight
carpeting forests with colored leaves

Oh clouds who         the sun do hide
the wind move's your cotton puffs
these such times our cherished days
where the weather's goes turning rough

Fading are the days whose warmth
will emerge        to the rising chills
and trees    undress their lofty boughs
standing naked       upon barren hills

the colors of the fields        are fading
the sky dawns        with a dusky hue
the fledgling rain        in it's delivery
stays the grasses wet with it's dew

You've redressed the bounds and landscapes
and the sunsets         have started to blush
birthing all the rhythms              in nature
and of seasons transforming their flush

The sunlight's zenith will be shedding
exchanged         for the blankets and veils
where the finery of your mountain valleys
wear ash gray         along with your dales

The cauldron of life's ever stirring
expression is cooked      on it's range
the shades of the paintings dynamic
and it's canvas always subject to change

Like spices            you alter the flavors
of the years ever changing their gown
where the fare you serve on times table
finds the trail          to joy you lead down

Premium Member Chocolate Bunnies, Champagne and Roses

Easter is upon us
My darling said to me
She keeps quizzing me for chocolate
I said just wait and see

    I wonder what he got me
    Maybe chocolate and some flowers
    I'll be putty in his hands
    Surrendering, as he devours

I need to do some shopping
For chocolates, champagne and roses
The latter will grace my darling
On our bed in delightful poses

     I shall get myself prepared
     For an Easter evening of romance
     A shower and some fragrance
     With a kissing cuddling dance

I hear the water running
As i step through the door
Rose petals on our bed
Also carpeting our floor

     I feel my loves hands on me
     As he joins me in the shower
     Caressing as we wash
     His manliness empowers

We dry each other down
To our bedroom we kiss and touch
Our bed a carpet of roses
We lie down in tender clutch

     His hands in loving wander
     My zones excite and please
     Rose petals float down upon me
     With chocolate, he's on his knees

I lean down and kiss my love
Her body chocolate blessed
Knowing of my sweetness
And my inner hungered zest

     I guide my love to kiss me
     And tell him to close his eyes
     I take him on a chocolate journey
     Where he finds, he'll be surprised

Our chocolate adventures over
To the shower we go again
When we head back to our bedroom
We start again with chilled champagne

Premium Member A Kiss of Sunshine

taking an early walk along the shore
awaiting for the royal entrance of the new day
through His Love Divine---
I hear the whisper of the cold and gentle wind into my ears saying:
the arrival of your majestic prince of the universe has now begun

excitements I feel deep down in my heart
giving a fleeting  glimpse at the  side of the ocean
there lies the long ranges of mountain-tops
seems as if they hide him from me
giving me  suspense on his final exquisite appearance 

as the ebbs move gracefully on their way back…
carpeting his path
waves all arise welcoming him with their loveliest prelude
the cold breeze gently wafts the perfumes as  peaceful as they could
a scent of the blue ocean-potpourri
 filling the air up to the clouds then down to my mood

as my prince finally  ascends unto the clear sky
through his radiant rays he sends me right away  his glowing smiles
descending his loving touch  mellowed by God’s Loving Embraces
from my face creeping down to my whole being
all I feel is his warmth: an assurance that forever He cares

a very wonderful feeling I can’t explain
I close my eyes and raise my  gentle face towards his rays
trying to absorb  all the blessings and graces he brings
Oh, what a great and wonderful feeling!

keeping still my chin up on high
exposing to him my rosy cheeked face as I close my eyes
then I protrude my  lips
As I want to finally feel my  Prince Sun’s warmest  kiss


a kiss of my Darling Sunshine
a  sweet kiss of love
the greatest and eternal love
from up above

Note:


 I love sunshine! My father gave me a ring when I was still young engraved with words Darling Sunshine because according to him I was born during sunrise. I lost the ring when I was staying in a dormitory as a student.
